Welcome to Educause 2023

OK. Hello. I'm glad you found your way here to eCampus News Live exclusive coverage of the 2023 Educause conference being held in Chicago October 8th through 10th. My name is Kevin Hogan. I'm content director for E Campus News, and I'm excited to get out to the Windy City and meet up with folks again in person to talk about the latest and greatest in higher Ed. Both the issues and the technologies and maybe even sneak in at steak dinner or two, I've had the pleasure of attending edgy cause over the past several years, both pre COVID and post, and I have to say that from my point of view the event proves the law that in person events are essential. You just can't. Had the same quality interactions on zoom, no offence zoom. I've also had the pleasure of working with the EDUCAUSE membership team and conversations for both stories on eCampus as well as interviews for the podcasts. Scroll down for some of those. The insights that you could glean from their work, I believe, can certainly enable your job of managing it. When it comes to your school campus, no matter if we're talking about a Community College, back office, or a research department in a large state school. Pick a topic that is hot right now. Let's start with what else? Artificial intelligence, but. Also, issues that focus on cybersecurity, diversity, equity and inclusion. Or maybe data privacy? These all are essential issues that need to be dealt with in order to keep a campus running, and I expect our coverage will take a deep dive into. All of it. I hope that he used this site over the next several months to act as a resource, whether you were at the show itself and need to go back and use it as an executive summary. Or maybe you attended their online conference, but you're still hungry For more information. Consider this your library from those days in Chicago, and conversations that hopefully will extend beyond. I hope you enjoy it.
